With his most recent statements about climate protests, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has gotten himself into trouble. Speaking to students, the SPD politician dismissed the persistent actions of groups like the last generation as “completely insane”.
The outrage of the climate activists mentioned was not long in coming. “We wonder in bewilderment: Mr. Scholz, how dare you stand up to the children whose futures you are destroying and say you think the protest against your destructive policies is ‘completely crazy’?” the group wrote. their Twitter page.
After all, it was the Chancellor’s fault that people on the streets of Germany had to try and fight peacefully for their fundamental rights. “The cause of our protest lies in the irresponsible fomenting of social collapse by the Scholz government,” the German environmental protection activists stressed.
‘Scholz pushes children into a school bus that has a fatal accident’
Scholz said Monday at a school in Kleinmachnow, Brandenburg, that he felt the actions did not help anyone change their mind, but that everyone was mostly annoyed. The Last Generation explained that Scholz presented himself as “the sweet uncle,” even though he knew he was pushing these kids on a global school bus that had a 98 percent chance of a fatal accident. The activists quoted a statement from the former head of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK), Hans Joachim Schellnhuber. He had said in 2019 in view of inadequate climate protection policies, “I’m telling you we’re pushing our kids on a global school bus that has a 98 percent chance of a fatal accident.”
